For what it's worth (Drew, et al), yes, I'd love to have the selected tab bleed into the document, but Allan doesn't dig it, and it does have some issues in regards to the colour of the document (eg Ruby's black) which are a not exactly simple to work around.
I think the reason this seems necessary is the way that the tabs adjoin the document area. You'll notice that Safari puts the tabs the other way up, so that they adjoin the toolbar instead.
Yes, but it's a flawed analogy for "tabs" and their function. You only think it works well in Safari because
a) Apple did it b) You're used to it c) You're probably an above-average user you translated Safari's tab analogy back to what you know about tabs.
Sorry, but I don't see the logic in upside-down tabs unless they're at the bottom of a document.
